Out now on BASSRUSH, “Purgatory” is the primary collaboration between bass music superstars SVDDEN DEATH and ATLIENS. Just days earlier than the first-annual Summoning Of The Eclipse Fest in Tennessee, curated by SVDDEN DEATH himself, “Purgatory” is an explosive mood-setter that can have followers salivating for what’s to return.
The observe has been unofficially circulating bass music circles for nearly two years, garnering the help of respected names and traction on social media channels like Twitter and Reddit. Just below the three minute mark, the observe options an obscurely ominous introduction main into a chronic build-up, virtually a purgatory of its personal for listeners. Slightly extra experimental than previous releases for each artists, the observe is harking back to house journey or alien sound – sporting an astronaut on the observe art work, designed by BeSafe. While SVDDEN DEATH usually releases independently by his personal label, Svdden Death Recordings, this will probably be ATLiens’ second time releasing with Bassrush, following their secondary EP Ghost Planet.
“I never planned on this track being released, as it was a quick WIP the Aliens sent me during quarantine to work on right before my EDC set in 2020. Over two years after the track was played out during my EDC stream, fans seemed to still be tagging us in it and the hype continued to grow. So when the Aliens asked if they could release it a couple years later…I was hesitant at first, but after we worked on it some more and upgraded it a bit, I said, “F*** it, let’s do it’ – and I’m finally happy with the result and stoked for everyone to hear it.”
